l only gamble with a betting bank which l have had for a long while plus generally apart from holidays or festivals its just the main Saturday's for me for when l have a bet.

Noting to do with luck Osem as although l have a distinct lack of knowledge in many areas of life l am very astute and nobody's fool when it comes to the horses.

Welcome to the world little man and I can't wait to meet you.

Just got a picture of him with his Daddy he is lovely.

I cannot wait till I'm a Gran, let me tell you I will be the worst Gran possible as I'm going to totally spoil all my Grandchildren. To be fair I have warned my eldest son and his fiancée of my plans

very nice for them Weenie

We had a very nice holiday in Budapest for 7 days, weather was mixed quite warm but cold at night only one day with rain. We done the City Bus Tour and a cruise up and down the River Danube, ( not keen on boats but it was nice ) Not really much entertainment at night but we managed to find a pub for two nights with music. Plenty shops. Now back to normal.

Hadn't realised it was horses at the time. Wondered if it might be the bingo, roulette or something else.

Glad you did well anyway.

We tend to go bingo when all of the family are present there Osem.

As for Roulette that is a mugs game as the odds are firmly stacked against you.

As for horses its a pound win or a pound each way generally as l don't go for shorties in the market as only mugs or lemmings go in for them.

Yes bingo I know you do a lot. I've never gambled apart from the odd lottery ticket so agree with you entirely about it being a mugs game for many people. My father in law used to do the horses but didn't ever win or lose much. It was just an escape I think.

nashville · 25-09-2017, 12:12

That's nice Mark .

MalteseFalcon · 25-09-2017, 14:38

It is nice, I am sick of not wanting to go to work. But it was a good laugh yesterday, we were finished and out of the door by 9, home by half 10. Just what you want.

weenie · 25-09-2017, 15:14

Glad to hear things at work have improved for you Mark.

Grandparents and grandchildren get on because they have a common enemy!

Having a bit of a break down in West Cornwall with the OH. Actually had three nice days on the trot and forecast is good for tomorrow. Makes up for July and August being so carp.

We're staying at my late mother's place for which we have a cash buyer, completion in mid to late November. That'll be the end of cheap holidays unfortunately. We'll just be like the rest of the emmets.
